As the Chiefs prepare to clash with the Eagles in the long-awaited Super Bowl LVII rematch, former NFL quarterback RGIII made a rather bold prediction. He believes this Super Bowl will break all the viewership records and become the most-watched game in the history of the NFL. The Kansas City Chiefs with Patrick Mahomes are the hopes of making a successive third victory into the Super Bowl, whereas Jalen Hurts and Eagles seem to settle accounts with a glorious 38-35 contest from their previous losing experience.

The Bold Prediction


RGIII, posting on social media exclaimed in delight how this is a historic game that he enjoys for all it has in store. After all, this match-up of Chiefs and Eagles is "ratings gold," especially since the two teams possess elite quarterbacks and high-power offenses to make millions watch the Super Bowl.

But unfortunately, all fans are not like RGIII. Some Twitter users have called out the NFL for what they perceive as scripted outcomes. One of the users, Jesse from Erie (@jgraffius), reacted by comparing the NFL and WWE in a sarcastic way: "The NFL is about as believable as the WWE. This is all rigged, it was set up before it started. I won't be watching." He reflected a notion or feeling among some viewers that the games are predetermined for the value of entertainment.
Another fan, Justin Jacobucci (@4thGenBucci), shot back at RGIII’s prediction, saying, “This is the worst take I’ve seen yet on the upcoming Super Bowl. They (media) will lie and tell us it’s the most-watched Super Bowl ever afterwards. But most of us know the truth. Outside of Philly/KC nobody wants this SB." This frustrated fan further underlines the fact that some viewers felt alienated from the game and didn't care about the media hype.
Indeed, RGIII's prediction is optimistic, but this fan reaction reveals a deeper sense of skepticism that some have about the NFL's motivations. Regardless of the debates, the Chiefs and Eagles will face off in what might be an unforgettable Super Bowl showdown. Be it breaking viewership records or sparking even more controversy, one thing is sure: this game will be watched by millions—and not everyone is pleased with it.
Super Bowl LIX is one thriller of an event. Whatever the case-whether the Chiefs make history with their third-straight win, or the Eagles finally take in their first win at the Super Bowl with Hurts as their quarterback -one thing's for sure. It is definitely going to be a clash like no other: February 9, 2025, has been slated for the action at the Caesars Superdome, New Orleans-all eyes will have to be put on this ultimate rematch.
